Tapered Flocculation Tank Goals for Summer 2008
- Past Research
- Developing Floc Profiles
- Extend the length of the flocculator to increase Gtheta
- Add obstacles to the beginning sections to increase shear where the floc can handle it
- Redesign the initial sections of the flocculator for baffles to be closer together initially
- Add kaolin clay to the raw water to test technology at higher inlet turbidities
- Run floc profile tests on the previous uniform baffle configuration for comparison
